A Deluge of Loss and Gain
Beaded sweat poured down her brow.
She wiped it away. Wish she could wipe away that pain too.
The glimmer of hope in the woman’s eyes, made her day.
For her, counseling in the hospital was a calling.
…A tribute to her baby who could not receive any medical assistance during the floods of 1999.
